The blood of the martyrs became the seed of christianity-explain?

This is my theory, it might be different to others: Martyrs are people who believe in Christ and they preach to other people about Him, trying to get more believers. But sometimes, that country might kill him/her, because they don't want Christianity in their country, and that death of the martyrs doesn't actually break down the cycle, but makes it even better. So the death of the martyrs changes the Holy Spirit in us so that we gain courage and Christianity gets stronger and stronger. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Martyrs by their deaths and blood justified their love to God. During horrible tortures they didn' t recede their belief. Thanks to the blood of the martyrs, the Church is still alive.


Why do you say that the blood of the martyrs is the lifeblood of the church?

The expression is a paraphrase of Tertullian [160-220 AD], one of the early Church Fathers. The Church had been suffering sporadic prosecution by the Romans and Tertullian, a brilliant theologian, wrote to the Emperor and one of the things he said was, 'The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church.' The implication was that the more you kill the stronger we become. This proved literally to be true, as more than three million lives were lost during the times of Roman persecution, but by the end of the era fully one tenth of the empire had coverted to Christianity or some seven million persons.
